We often hear others say that we are not happy or happy. These things are too rare. We are too small, or do not deserve to have them, or have too many worries. There are too many difficulties to deal with in life and work. We have no time and no resources. Space to store happiness.
If you also feel that happiness is too difficult, I suggest you read this book " The Road to Happiness " by Bertrand Russell.
This book is divided into two chapters: "Causes of Unhappiness" and "Causes of Happiness". The reasons for people's unhappiness include "melancholy, competition, boredom, fatigue, jealousy, crime, masochism and fear", and The reasons for happiness include "interest, love, family, work, leisure, hard work and sacrifice." After reading the whole book, I came to a truth that seems very simple, but few people can change, that is -
" What hinders us from being happy is often ourselves. "
In modern society, the older we grow, the less happy we are. Time seems to have swallowed up our happiness. As time goes by, the desire gap becomes difficult to fill, and the more things we want, the more we grow up. More and more come, but no matter how much they get, they feel it is not enough, so at first they are envious, then jealous, then jealous, and then some people will embark on the path of crime.
is like a chapter in a book, progressing bit by bit, taking us into our own spiritual world. Do we really need so many things to fill our emptiness? Can getting them really cure our emptiness? You still have something but can’t see it. All you see is what others have.
I feel more and more that happiness is a kind of ability, an ability that needs to be cultivated and perceived, to find in friendship, love and family, to explore in study, work and life, and to learn to let go. ability.
But first, we need a motivation, that is, you have to want happiness, make yourself think that you are worthy of happiness, and learn to open your eyes and look at the world around you, instead of just staring at your own emptiness and immersed in it. , unable to extricate himself.
Then you can follow the steps in the book, get closer to happiness little by little, perceive happiness, and finally get happiness. The comfort books can give is limited, and they are not omnipotent. But first, you must not reject happiness before you can truly have happiness.
embarking on the road to happiness is no different from us embarking on the road to study, except that the former seeks from our hearts, while the latter seeks from the outside world.
Happiness is a kind of perception. Some of you, me and others on this road have strong abilities and some have weak abilities. This "The Road to Happiness" is like a martial arts secret book, which can open up your tasks. Duermai makes it easier for you to feel happiness.
For example, the book mentions:
Human nature is most willing to give love to those who least require love. A man who strives to win affection by benevolent deeds is often disillusioned by the ruthlessness of mankind. He never thought that the tenderness he was trying to obtain was much more valuable than the material favors he paid as a price. However, the starting point of his behavior was the idea of gaining more with less.
We all want love, but love is not an exchange of equal value. If I love you, you can love me. If you give the other party better and more material things, the other party can give you equal love in return.
Love is not a bank, and loving someone is not a business, so many people feel aggrieved because of this. There is even no fairness in love, but it can influence whether we are happy or not.
But then I think about it, it is the fairest thing in the world. When I give love of equal value without desiring the other person’s return, when I work hard to shape myself and not care about other people’s eyes, when I can face my own heart calmly. Instead of pretending to be indifferent, I am already the best version of myself in the world. My happiness or unhappiness is in my own hands, not the other person's illusory love.
End.
